Dynamic cooling and heating load forecasting of heating, ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) systems is a basis for optimizing the operation of HVAC systems and can contribute to achieving the effective management for the HVAC systems. This paper proposes a load forecasting method for office buildings based on artificial intelligence and regression analysis, including wavelet transform, support vector machines (SVM), and partial least squares regression (PLS). An office building located in Tianjin, China is taken as the building case study to validate the proposed model. For selecting the input variables, the methods of sensitivity analysis and correlation analysis are used. The results of different prediction horizons, mainly including 1 h ahead, 2 h ahead, 3 h ahead and 24 h ahead forecasting, are finally provided. In order to illustrate the accuracy improvement of the proposed model, the other three models are built to compare with the proposed model. Further, the influence of weather forecast precision on the proposed model is analyzed in this paper. The results indicate that the proposed method can realize dynamic load forecasting with high accuracy for different time horizons. (C) 2018 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Multi-regional building energy efficiency intelligent regulation strategy based on multi-objective optimization and model predictive control

Yahui Du, Zhihua Zhou, Jing Zhao

Summary: With the increasing refinement of building functions and regions, researchers have proposed a regulation model that dynamically adjusts the set point temperature in different areas to reduce energy load and improve energy efficiency. Experimental results show that this strategy can reduce load demand by about 6.16% without sacrificing indoor comfort. Further optimization and control strategies can achieve overall energy savings of 12.78% for HVAC systems.

Estimating omnidirectional urban vertical wind speed with direction-dependent building morphologies

Qi Li, Jiayu Chen, Xiaowei Luo

Summary: This study focuses on the vertical wind conditions as a main external factor that limits the energy assessment of high-rise buildings in urban areas. Traditional tools for energy assessment of buildings use a universal vertical wind profile estimation, without taking into account the unique wind speed in each direction induced by the various shapes and configurations of buildings in cities. To address this limitation, the study developed an omnidirectional urban vertical wind speed estimation method using direction-dependent building morphologies and machine learning algorithms.

Model predictive control of distributed energy resources in residential buildings considering forecast uncertainties

Felix Langner, Weimin Wang, Moritz Frahm, Veit Hagenmeyer

Summary: This paper compares two main approaches to consider uncertainties in model predictive control (MPC) for buildings: robust and stochastic MPC. The results show that compared to a deterministic MPC, the robust MPC increases the electricity cost while providing complete temperature constraint satisfaction, while the stochastic MPC slightly increases the electricity cost but fulfills the thermal comfort requirements.
